History

Sutter Cane was a horror writer in the vain of HP Lovecraft and Stephen King. Hist stories followed similar themes and motifs, usually taking place in New England and involving elritch abominations coming to earth and causing destruction. Cane's works became the most popular in the world, being translated into 18 languages and selling over a billion copies. As they became more popular, his readers started becoming paranoid schizophrenics and psychopaths.

Before the release of his novel, In the Mouth of Madness, Sutter Cane went missing as part of a publicity stunt. To give the stunt plausibility, his publishing company filed and insurance claim and sent investigator John Trent to find him. As it turned out, Sutter Cane's novels had a map hidden across the illustrations on the soft-cover additions, leading to a peice of farmland in the middle of New Hampshire. Upon entering the town, Trent found it was inhabited by Cane's various fictional works, eventually discovering it was the fictional town Hobb's End from Hobb's End Horror.

Cane was inside an old church, writing on his typewriter. As it turned out, Cane was only a conduit for the various abominations he wrote of, and had never actually invented any of them. Cane's only means of keeping them at bay was writing stories about them, and even that was beginning to fail.
